A Night to Remember Chapter Four

Chapter six

Alexa’s P.O.V.

As I opened my eyes I was back in the room I woke up in the first time. But this time I had the older man and Damien beside me.

“What happened?” I wondered slightly confused.

“You fainted my dear. Luckily Damien caught you or you would have bumped your head on the corner of the table. Oh I am King of the Night, My name is Dracula. But you can call me dad.” The older man said who I guess I am to call him dad.

“Are you okay.” Damien finally said with a concerned look in his eyes. Oh god I can’t be falling for him, one thing he’s the Dark Prince, and secondly he has a fiancé. Wait… I was his fiancé.

“HEY! Wait a second here. I am NOT going to marry someone that KIDNAPPED me and I have known for all of 8 hours.” I started yelling

“Actually its 12 hours and well you don’t have a choice.” Dad said.

“I always have a choice. My real father always said I did.”

“Well the alternative of not getting married is death, still like the alternative.”

“Well when are we getting married?”

“Not for a while. A week after your 18th birthday”

I groaned I was not happy about getting married and was going to find a way out of it.

“Well I am taking my leave. Damien stay with her for the night, explain, and sleep. The two of you will be sleeping together from now on.” Dad said as he walked out the door.

“What no way-” I started but the door had already been closed.

“What are you looking at?!” I said to Damien.

“Nothing, but I need to explain to you about your history and well I better get this over with, and then start about the prophecy and then finally we can get to sleep.”

“So some hundred years ago some monk stated that he could see the future, I personally never met him, since I thought it was a load of bull but whatever. It seems that every prophecy he has ever written has come true. There as a prophecy that the Youngest son of the Dark Lord, that would be me, and the daughter of the beautiful queen of the Fairies, which is you, would be wed and a special bond would be made between the two, one of which nobody has ever seen before. One of such power that if anything were to ever happen to either of the two the other would either die or the original partner that was harmed would come back to life. Sort of invincible. But our parents little did they know that there was a prophecy about their children thought they should get into a relationship, think of the power some people thought, but I think our parents were in love. After they found out about the prophecy your mother ran from my father. Hid in her country never to come out again. After the birth of you she hid you in the mortal world to try and hid you from me. But two years ago I smelt you for the first time. Your blood “sang” to me. I followed it to your house. It was as if a spell had been put on me. And I watched over you every night for two years. Sometimes when you were having a nightmare or I could tell you were scarred I would lay with you. But one day my dad found out, and he made me take him to you. He was shocked that it was you. He was furious that your mother didn’t tell him that you were almost of age. So the day of your birthday Chris and I went to take you. But I saw how happy you were with you family and left you. One more day couldn’t hurt. Oh boy was I wrong when I got back my father was so angry I thought I was going to be the youngest deceased song of Dracula. He told me to go back in a week and get you. So this is pretty much where we are. For the rest of the prophecy about the bond and stuff that’s really all I know. I’m already breaking some code knowing so much but I am really curious and had to know why my dad was always searching in the mortal world without bringing back any pets. So that’s pretty much it.”

I couldn’t believe what he was saying. I wouldn’t believe it. I was not a princess, my real mother was at home worried sick about me and my brother and sister that I grew up with were my real siblings.

“I don’t believe you.” I told Damien.

“Well not only do you have special powers that you will uncover after your 18th birthday but our special connection will start to form after our first kiss.” Damien told me. “Plus that ring you wear all the time, it’s the only thing that the queen wears and the only thing she ever gave you.”

“I still don’t believe you!” I yelled at him I stood up off the bed and ran for the door but of course Damien beat me there with his super speed.

“LET ME GO!” I wailed at him I was starting to get frustrated, the mom I know was at home, she was my mom nobody else, I wasn’t a princess, he must be confusing me with someone else, there was no way that I could be a fairy, I’m tall for god sakes! The more I thought about it the more the tears came and the more I started to pound on Damien’s chest. Eventually he moved his hands so I couldn’t punch his chest (even though I was sure it wasn’t hurting him) and he wrapped his arms around me, trying to sooth me. To reassure me that it was okay. But I was not okay. I just cried harder and pulled myself closer to him. I have no idea how long we stood there like that but I could tell it was a while. Eventually my tears slowed, and I looked up at Damien’s face. He looked down with so much concern it moved me. Something clicked, it was as if someone was controlling my body and telling me what to do. But I started to move my face closer to Damien’s and he started to lean down to meet mine. Our eyes locked and for a moment time stopped. Eventually our lips met and I stopped breathing. My eyes slid shut, his arms moved from my back to my head, cradling it. My arms snaked up around his neck. His tongue in time touched my bottom lip, as though begging for entrance, as I parted my lips I could feel the passion in his kiss. His tongue explored my mouth. Finally I got my breathing back and broke for air.

As our lips parted I raised my head to look into his eyes. Which had turn a green, blue, turquoise color. My breathing started to return to normal as we just stared into each others eyes.
